To respond to the OP, I find it very hard to believe that BMW would waste R&D and production setup money to market a product they purposefully want to fail. If they wanted to "kill" the 6MT, they would simply not have offered it.

IMO, they still want to cater to that small niche of MT enthusiast, but they did it in the most economical manner given their assumed low take rate. It's all a question of "business case". We should just relish in the fact that BMW is still offering the 6MT option.
